Materials
This translation is written with PSP 2020, if you work with other versions some things might be different but the result will be the same.
Note: In the latest versions of PSP the command
Image-Mirror has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Horizontal
and Image-Flip has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Vertical
I use the old versions of Image-Mirror and Image-Flip

Place the selections into the Selections folder of your PSP
